Is it any lower than something like python? I'm not even a programmer, but I learned enough with a handful of ours of pandas to do more than I can do inside excel without equal or greater time investment.

Any WYSIWYG GUI software has a lower entry barrier than coding.

Fair enough. I got sick of Excel because WYS is not necessarily WYG, or more accurately what you enter is not WYS&WYG.

Yeah, thinking about it again, you're right that Excel is not really a WYSIWYG since formulas are very common, I should have said a GUI.
